Drawing on empirical data, the study explores three key dimensions. \u003cstrong\u003eLoan Volume\u003c\/strong\u003e: It explores how increases in capital requirements lead to a measurable decline in the volume of gross loans extended to the non-financial sector, even after accounting for macroeconomic conditions. \u003cstrong\u003eInterest Rates\u003c\/strong\u003e: It examines why, during periods of economic stability, higher capital requirements do not necessarily translate into higher loan interest rates—aligning with findings in the existing literature. \u003cstrong\u003eLoan Portfolio Composition\u003c\/strong\u003e: It uncovers how different segments of the loan portfolio—Corporate \u0026amp; Commercial Loans, Residential Mortgages, and Consumer\/Retail Loans—respond uniquely to regulatory changes, with corporate lending being the most sensitive. The book also examines how economic policy uncertainty and bank profitability influence lending decisions, offering nuanced insights into the interplay between regulation and financial behaviour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x_MsoNormal\"\u003eA vital resource for policymakers, regulators, and financial scholars, this work contributes to the limited literature on capital regulation in Canada. It provides practical guidance on how to strengthen financial resilience without stifling the credit needed for economic recovery and growth.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Palgrave Macmillan\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2025-10-02\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783032022073\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-032-02208-0\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 210cm x148cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 10\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Nature Switzerland","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44309939978380,"sku":"9783032022073","price":40.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783032022073_3567a290-6926-44bf-9f78-8001f421b494.jpg?v=1772948278","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9783032022073","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
